This offshore boutique fields a small but highly respected litigation team, advising on a wide range of disputes spanning everything from high-end commercial and trusts through debt recovery, on-island property disputes and all aspects of private client and estates litigation. It is perhaps the perfect role for someone who thrives on a varied practice and who is attracted by the opportunity to gain hands-on experience, taking responsibility for matters and dealing directly with clients. You will be part of an ambitious and driven team that is at the same time collegiate and friendly in its approach.
Bermuda
Bermuda offers you the opportunity to live and work in one of the world’s most desirable locations. The island benefits from a mild year-round climate, never too cold in the winter and rarely too hot in the summer. It is famed for its picture-postcard pink sand beaches and crystal-clear ocean, but it also has plenty of history and boasts all the attractions associated with a luxury holiday destination. And if you should need a break from island life, with regular direct flights to London, New York and other parts of the US, it is particularly well connected.
Process
Interviews will take place by videoconference with start dates typically around 4-6 months later (depending on your notice period). Our clients provide comprehensive assistance with visas and relocation.
Package
Competitive salary, low tax rate, benefits, bonus, and relocation package (flights + temporary accommodation on arrival + expenses allowance).
Requirements
You will need at least 3 years’ post-qualification experience, and you will be qualified in the UK or an equivalent Commonwealth jurisdiction (Australia, NZ, Canada, South Africa). Some experience of/a keen interest in advocacy is required as you will be involved in court work.
Origin Legal International
Our team has 25 years’ experience of helping lawyers to make international and offshore moves. If you would like to find out more about this role or chat about an overseas move in general, please get in touch.
